Where Unix?
I thought Unix was kinda like an operating system? Does Windows not count?
Unix is an operating system and there are a lot of other operating systems derived from it. Windows is one of the few operating systems that are not derived from Unix, although I suppose it would count if you setup WSL and riced it since it runs the Linux kernel.
Basically, nowadays Unix (or more formal POSIX) is a standard for operating systems to follow. Most modern operating systems are either derived from Unix (modern MacOS and Solaris), inspired by it (Linux and open-source BSDs) or at least POSIX-compatible (Haiku). Windows is neither of this - being monopoly they basically don’t need to follow a standard when they can force everyone to implement their solution.
So yeah, Unix is an OS and Windows doesn’t count.
Unix is a specific operating system, and there are a lot of operating systems based on it or derived from it (Linux, MacOS, BSD, and both Android and ChromeOS which are based on the linux kernel)
Here’s a handy link to the Wikipedia page for unix. You may find the intro & history sections more useful than the stuff about what Unix is from a technical perspective, or how it works.
This may be sacrilege, but I don’t mind seeing someone’s Windows customizations here, though its not what the community is intended for
oh, I see. I saw that Windows was inspired by Unix while I was researching it, but it turns out that I’m wrong
Isnt unix inspired by the fact that windows is preprietary(i cant spell that) and people got tied of their bs
no, Unix was proprietary too
I I didn’t know that
@Oliper202020 @Yoru no, UNIX had been around way longer than Windows, and it was also proprietary. If you in fact mean Linux, that started it as a hobby project that now runs over 90% of the internet and the majority of all smartphones (among other things).
Oh i didn’t know that unix came before windows
Why this guy is getting downvoted for asking a question?
You should probably Google UNIX first…
I googled it before posting this, and it said Google was inspired by Unix so I thought it was fine :/
Google was.
But what about Windows?
sorry I typed that after I had just woken up LMAO
Quick, install a Linux distro to the Windows subsystem
If there’s no Unix, so just porn then?
then where are the boobs
Everywhere, and nowhere.
All at once!
Just show WSL running in the terminal and you’re good 😉
I use Linux everywhere I can, but my main rig is Win10 Pro, as I play a few games that will not run on any other OS.
That being said, I use tabbed file explorer, a package manager (Scoop through terminal, and winget-ui for GUI), a top-down taskbar, and as much FOSS as I can use for my workflow. I lovingly call my setup “Winux”, because any MS user who sees it thinks it’s Linux.
nice Winux!
That’s pretty cool!!! I thought it was Linux at first
Nice winux, thought that was Linux at first too 😅
Thanks for sharing your setup, I didn’t even know about tabbed file explorer!
@Yoru Windows is NOT Unix, so this does NOT count…
This isnt rice, it’s that fine chopped pasta that can be used as rice!
😉
I think thats orzo?
Da fuck is this, this is unix not dos shit (super toxic epic comment alert)
XD Appreciate it
Would you be kind enough to spare this mere peasant of your wallpaper please?

6 packages, and they say windows is bloated… 😮💨
LMAO those are scoop packages, though I think you already knew… or not. I can’t really tell sarcasm
Yep, though i never heard of scoop, i used chocolatey for a while, but ditched windows a few years ago.
I did use a few Linux Distros 2 years ago but I had to quit because it was messing with my sleeping schedule.
Thats weird
How does Linux mess with your sleep schedule?
too fun, I guess. I switched to pop!_OS a few days ago though
DosPorn
which de/wm did you use?
I don’t know what those mean… 😓
It means desktop environment and window manager respectively. Windows has only one (it being the default) and is not unix, so you should probably post this elsewhere.
yea I figured out Windows isn’t Unix after the comments bombarded me with information… MacOS is Unix so I assumed Windows was too :D
bro?
Wtf ugly
Contemporary Movement is my favorite Duster album. They are a trully awesome band.
I found it out through the Sisyphus meme, and I’m so glad I did
The first time I saw a Rainmeter thread, I assumed it was Unix. And now we’ve come full circle where a rainmeter post is in a sea of Unix.
Great job OP.
thank you :>
Mom, please make the bad person stop.
Looks nice.
You can rename your desktop shortcuts with invisible characters to have them only appear as icons. One character that works for this is holding alt and using the numpad to press 255, you cant have the same name for the icons, so just add different number of invisible characters to them.
